Which Pokémon will appear during the Spotlight Hours in May 2020 in Pokémon GO as shown by the developers at Niantic, as well as the bonuses you can expect.
What happens in May? At the beginning of May 2020, the “Pokémon GO” developers at Niantic provide an overview of what to expect in the next four weeks.
The focus is on a new research breakthrough with Sheinux and four new Spotlight Hours. Spotlight Hours are events that are active once a week for one hour. During these hours, a Pokémon is in the spotlight, accompanied by a bonus.
This is always a good opportunity for you to earn a lot of candy for the respective Pokémon and to earn more experience points or Stardust due to the bonus. However, this can only happen if you have time to play.
To help you plan your May in advance and possibly keep your calendar free for the Spotlight Hours, we present you with the overview of the events in May.
Additionally, a large nostalgia event with special research is taking place. All steps for the Kanto Nostalgia research and its rewards.
